fixing your flooded house
Posted on September 29, 2009 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
I guess there’s really no easy way to easily clean up or fix a house that’s been flooded. Some of our friends’ houses were totally submerged in water there was mud even on the roofs. Almost nothing was salvageable inside the house, not even a light fixture. Some of them have more than one car [...]

Last Saturday, the Philippines was hit by the worst typhoon it has ever experienced in 40+ years. Thousands of Filipinos lost their homes and were left with literally nothing but the shirts on their backs. We felt really lucky that despite living in one of the most affected areas, all the damage we got was [...]

The picture above was taken when Ramil still has his motorcycle. Before you wag your tongues, Mateo never actually rode it except to go out of our garage. I was a bit relieved that Ramil agreed to sell it so we can set aside the money for the coming baby. Otherwise, life insurance is something [...]

I am currently in my 10th week of pregnancy. Although I’m happy that it’s just a few weeks until the first trimester is over, the ever-famous morning sickness is just quickly gaining momentum and as I’m dreading, haven’t reached it’s worst.
Aside from the all-day on-off nausea and vomiting reflex, I’ve also been feeling a little [...]

Not yet, but we hope soon. Hopefully, my parents will push through with lending us another car especially with my delivery happening in April. I guess it’s the ticket to seeing their second grandchild more often because Ramil and I don’t plan to go anywhere soon after I give birth unless we have a car [...]

Ever since we moved here to Antipolo, I’d jokingly tell my parents to sell our house in Novaliches and just get a new house here as well. Being away from our parents has made Ramil and me more independent but it also has its share of disadvantages. It would be so convenient to have our [...]

Most people who see Mateo remark that he looks like Ramil and I couldn’t agree more. However, there’s something with Mateo’s face and smile here that reminds me of myself. I realized how amazing the feeling is when you look at your child and you could almost touch the genetic material that came from you. [...]

Ramil just bought a bike. We sold his motorcycle for many reasons and our solution was for him to buy a bicycle instead. It’s a pretty good buy for its price because it’s pure alloy and uses shimano parts. He plans to use it as his main transportation to school/work which is just a subdivision [...]

This shot was taken in Mateo’s school where they have an astronaut standee. Mateo loved this when he first saw it in school and he was amused when he saw his picture. I asked him ‘Wow, are you an astronaut?’ and he answered me with a ‘No mama, it’s just a picture’. There’s no fooling [...]

It’s 9:25 pm and yet all of us are still in school, even Mateo. We’ve been rushing grades and waiting for everyone to be ready for deliberations. I’m just thankful that Mateo is being entertained by my sister by playing many kinds of facebook games. It’s a good thing that there’s internet here and we [...]
